I have a book of ghosts and gods

Chapter 599 Major Events in Jiangdu (4000 words chapter)

Earth Immortal?

Jiang Zhou was startled.

But as soon as he thought about it, he regarded it as normal again.

The word "Earth Immortal" made him subconsciously think that it was an Earth Immortal recorded in the Book of Ghosts and Gods.

But when I think of the former priest who practiced the "Earth Immortal" method, I know that the Earth Immortal here is a bit watery.

From what old man Zhang said just now, it can be seen that it is normal.

The earth immortal lives the same life as the heaven and the earth, and lives the same king as the world. If you leave the cave, you will rush, isn't that Voldemort...

At this time, everyone in the Qiu family was staring blankly at "Old Zhang".

They don't understand what kind of immortals or caves, they only have one thought now:
This person is... old man Zhang?

A girl from the Qiu family quietly leaned into the ear of the younger sister of the Qiu family and said, "Little sister, why don't you marry my elder sister?"

Little sister of the Qiu family: "..."

Qiu Laoru was awakened by her embarrassing voice, and turned his head to give him a hard look.

With eyes full of surprise, he said to "Old Zhang" in front of him, "Zhang, Zhang... are you really Mr. Zhang?"

Zhang Wenjin nodded with a smile: "It's Zhang, I didn't hide it intentionally, it's just that Zhang has been up and down in the world for nearly a hundred years, and I almost forgot my name, if it wasn't for..."

He glanced at Miss Qiu, showing a bit of shyness, but Miss Qiu was generous and never avoided his eyes.

Instead, it made him look away and look at Jiang Zhou: "If it wasn't for Jiang Daoyou's reminder, Zhang almost made a big mistake without knowing it."

At this time, Qiu Jia Dalang and others were not in the mood to listen to what he said about the world or the cave, but only cared about the various arrangements in this hall.

The windows are jasper windows, and the pearls are foil.

The door is made of vermilion wood, as smooth as jade, which has never been seen or heard before.

The steps in front of the door are also cold, slippery and blue, and it is impossible to distinguish them.

Even the maidservants standing beside her are dressed in extremely luxurious costumes, and their appearance is beautiful and not ordinary.

Seeing the Qiu family's son-in-law and others staring straight at their eyes, their hearts were stupid, but they didn't dare to make mistakes.

Seeing this, Zhang Wenjin didn't take it seriously, and only whispered a few words to the maidservant.

He pulled Jiang Zhou aside and whispered, giving everyone in the Qiu family time to digest this.

At this time, Jiang Zhou finally found an opportunity to ask the question in his heart: "Zhang Daoyou, you are really a fairy cave here, with such a happy place, why do you want to roll around in the world of mortals, so that you can't be quiet?"

Thinking of the old man who was carrying a bucket of urine in the vegetable garden and irrigated the garden with a broken ladle, Jiang Zhou really couldn't associate it with this imposing fairy figure in front of him.

Zhang Wenjin smiled wryly, and said, "Xiaoyao? Fellow Daoist Jiang, if you are allowed to stay here for three or two days, would you like it?"

Jiang Zhou nodded: "Of course it's something you can't ask for."

Zhang Wenjin asked again: "How about March and May?"

Jiang Zhou still nodded: "Also."

Zhang Wenjin continued to ask: "What about three to five years, three to fifty years?"

Jiang Zhou pondered for a while: "I'm afraid it will inevitably be lonely."

Speaking of which, he probably understood.

Sure enough, Zhang Wenjin said bitterly: "That's right, three to five years, three to fifty years, fellow Taoists, just thinking about it will make you tired, but Zhang has lived here for more than three thousand years. I really can't bear the loneliness. Even though I know that the dust and poison erode the heart and bones, that all kinds of decay are entangled, and that eventually I cannot escape death, I would like to enjoy the warmth and coldness of the world in this world.”

Jiang Zhou seems to understand but not understand.

This kind of scenario is certainly conceivable, but imagining is one thing. After all, he hasn't lived for so long, and he has no right to comment if he has experienced it firsthand.

He just nodded and said, "So, it's Miss Qiu who made Fellow Daoist change his mind?"

Zhang Wenjin showed a hint of shyness.

Thousands of old monsters have been seen, why haven't I seen them?It's just that the many maidservants in his village are no worse than Qiu Xiao's family, they are still like this, it seems that he really has deep affection for Miss Qiu's family.

"that……"

The two were talking, when they suddenly heard Qiu Jia Dalang rubbing his hands and saying: "Mr. Zhang, when will you marry my younger sister?"

"..."

Jiang Zhou's face twitched slightly.

Old Confucian Qiu covered his face with his sleeve, he was temporarily ashamed to face others.

Originally rejecting people on the grounds that they were well-matched, but now their family is not good enough.

But if a daughter can marry such a fairy character, it would be great indeed.

And let this shameless eldest son play freely.

The rest of the Qiu family were excitedly looking forward to Zhang Wenjin's answer.

On the contrary, the younger sister of the Qiu family stood there looking at Zhang Wenjin generously.

Jiang Zhou looked at the familiar scene in front of him, but the roles were reversed, and he couldn't help but let out a low laugh full of sarcasm.

Not only are you laughing at everyone, but you are also laughing at yourself.

After all, like the Qiu family, they are ordinary people who judge people by their appearance.

He claimed to be transcendent and holy, but he still couldn't get out of the mortal world after all. He was still confused by appearance and burdened by the world like a mortal.

This may be the "flaw" of his rapid entry and shallow background.

It's no wonder that Qian Taishao said at the beginning that the way of cultivating "immortals" is to enter the mountains.

After cultivating and cultivating, people will eventually enter the mountains.

Otherwise, you will end up being burdened by the world and eroded by dust and poison.

Not to mention whether he becomes a fairy or remains a human in the end, there is always this process.

If you don't enter the mundane world, don't go through common things, and don't cultivate merits, it is difficult to achieve positive results.

If you don't go out of the mundane world, you can't be quiet, and it's hard to achieve a positive result.

It is wrong to advance, and it is wrong not to advance.

When Jiang Zhou fell into some kind of struggle and confusion because of Qiu Jia Dalang's words, Zhang Wenjin felt something, and when he raised his hand slightly, there was an invisible flow of qi, which isolated Jiang Zhou in the world, and he didn't feel anything outside. Don't bother with it.

Only then did he discuss it with the Qiu family.

He had always wanted to marry the younger sister of the Qiu family, so naturally he would not be dissatisfied with the Qiu family's attitude of taking the lead and then respecting them.

The two hit it off immediately, and the marriage was settled without a few words.

Originally, it was the Qiu family's big man's idea to make a big fuss about the marriage and distribute invitations widely so that the world would know that his younger sister of the Qiu family married a fairy, and the Qiu family has never been what it used to be.

Zhang Wenjin has nothing to do, as long as he can marry Qiu Xiaomei, he is willing to do anything.

It was Qiu Laoru who stopped him.

He was the one who tried so hard to break his promise and refuse the marriage before, and now he is the one who is shy and wants someone to marry his younger sister. If he is not worried about Qiu Xiaomei's happiness in the future, he will never be ashamed.

How can there be any face to ask for a big deal now?Wouldn't spreading the word make many old friends of Confucianism see him as a joke?

Although the sons-in-law of the Qiu family were unwilling, they couldn't resist the dignified old Confucian Qiu, so they reluctantly agreed.

Now that the marriage was settled, the younger sister of the Qiu family showed a bit of shyness, and lowered her head, not daring to look at Zhang Wenjin again.

I don't know how long it took, Jiang Zhou woke up from the chaotic thoughts, but there seemed to be a clear air around his body, and his eyes were as clear and clean as jade fairy light.

The Qiu family was no longer in the hall, only Zhang Wenjin looked at him with a smile: "Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Jiang, keep going."

He sighed: "Fellow Daoist is really a talent from the heavens. It is worthy of being favored by luck. It is no wonder that many celestial sect masters are flocking to you."

"Oh?"

Jiang Zhou was naturally happy with his entry, but if Zhang Wenjin's words meant something, he put it aside for a while and said, "Brother Dao, do you have some advice for what you said?"

Zhang Wenjin nodded and said with a smile: "Jiang Daoyou, do you know that the five religions are the sects, and the immortal sects discuss things together?"

Jiang Zhou said: "Brother Dao is referring to Milun Xiaohui?"

"good."

Zhang Wenjin said: "Fellow Taoist really knows."

"The so-called: There are nine destiny, the king's generation of Ji family, ninety-nine return to one, heaven and man are different, clear and turbid are divided, and up and down are orderly."

He looked at Jiang Zhou and said, "This is what the various sects of the Milunhui discussed together."

"There are nine destinies, Wang Daiji's family, ninety-nine return to one, there is a difference between heaven and man..."

Jiang Zhou repeated this sentence, and suddenly showed an inexplicable smile: "This fairy sect is really ambitious. This game of chess in the world can't satisfy them, and they have to separate out a "Heaven and man are different, and the upper and lower respects are respected." humble'."

He was not surprised, how could Zhang Wenjin know this.

For an old monster who has lived for thousands of years, and doesn't even know how to use it to escape the catastrophe of "three thousand lifespan" of a practitioner, he is not surprised that there are many methods.

"Clearness and turbidity are divided into two parts, and up and down are orderly?"

Jiang Zhou said with a smile: "Could it be that they still want to recreate the heaven and the earth, pretending to be heaven, man and gods, aloft, and preventing all beings from being ants?"

Zhang Wenjin stretched out his hand and signaled Jiang Zhou to take his seat. After they were all seated, he smiled and said, "Thousands of years ago, it's not like this. Come to think of it, that Diji is also worthy of being an emperor of all ages, and he was able to open up this emperor's way of humanity in such a desperate situation."

Jiang Zhou nodded in agreement, and asked again: "I don't know if brother mentioned this matter, so what does it have to do with me?"

Zhang Wenjin said: "Someone also heard from a friend that the country of Yu was originally one of the Nine Numbers of Destiny, but now that the Kingdom of Yu has been destroyed by a fellow Taoist, the Nine Numbers are missing, so it is natural to make up for it. As the person who destroyed the Country of Yu himself, who else can compare Fellow Daoist is more suitable to continue to make up for the lack of these nine numbers?"

Jiang Zhou laughed and said, "I'm not a feudal lord, and I'm not a great sect of immortals. How can I have such abilities?"

Zhang Wenjin shook his head and said, "Fellow Daoists are underestimating themselves."

He didn't expose Jiang Zhou's insincere words, but he pointed out in a measured manner: "The great sect of Xianmen has far-reaching calculations. If you don't have this heart, you need to be careful."

When Jiang Zhou heard the words, he also agreed in his heart.

They are all thousand-year-old foxes, even if he hangs up, he may not know when the gutter will capsize.

"Thank you, brother."

Zhang Wenjin waved his hand and said: "Fellow Daoists and I have the grace of donating money and the virtue of being a matchmaker. From now on, if there is a need, just talk, and I will definitely not refuse."

"Thank you for your kindness." Jiang Zhou nodded, and thanked him again, but there was no need to pretend to refuse.

An earth immortal who has survived the catastrophe, even though he has a fatal flaw that seems to be "Voldemort", is still a powerful force that cannot be ignored. It is uncertain when it will be useful.

Zhang Wenjin's promise can be regarded as a great kindness.

This can be regarded as going against the famous teacher of Xianmen, which is not an easy task.

Zhang Wenjin clicked to stop, and the conversation was over, and he said shyly: "I will marry Miss Qiu, and I will choose an auspicious date in the next month. According to my father-in-law, I only need to invite a few relatives and friends to my cave. In the meantime, it’s enough to drink a few cups of wedding wine, I don’t have many friends and relatives on weekdays, I’m lucky to be in the world of mortals, and I have such a good neighbor as Daoist Jiang, and I invite you to honor me at that time.”

Jiang Zhou nodded and said, "It's easy to say."

Zhang Wenjin looked happy, but suddenly said: "Since that's the case, I won't keep any more friends."

Jiang Zhou didn't think that he wanted to drive people away because he turned his face and refused to recognize them. He heard him explain: "Although my cave is a blessed place, it is different from the world after all. One day in the cave is one year in the world. It is not a lie. Fellow Daoist has been sitting here for three to five hours, and many days have passed outside, although I intend to keep Fellow Daoist here for a long time, but Fellow Daoist is still a human being after all, and I am afraid that I will miss things about Fellow Daoist."

This surprised Jiang Zhou.

Fortunately, Zhang Wenjin reminded, otherwise, it might really be a mistake.

If it really took a few days, I am afraid that the results of the Qiuwei Grand Competition have already come out.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhou couldn't sit still: "Since that's the case, Jiang will leave now."

Zhang Wenjin stood up and sent them off: "Fellow Daoists have the moonlight in their hands, and you can come and go here at any time. If you have spare time, you are welcome to come and visit you. Fellow Daoists will be of great benefit to your practice."

Jiang Zhou knew what he meant.

Practice together, but also in stages.

With his current practice, it should be the time to leave the world and enter the mountain.

Although it was because of the opposite attitude of everyone in Guanqiu's family before that he was able to improve his Taoism, in fact the main reason was because of this blessed place. If he was outside, even if he had some enlightenment, he would never be able to improve so easily.

……

When Jiang Zhou was still in the Earth Immortal Cave, something did happen outside.

It can also be said to be the most sensational event in Jiangdu City recently, apart from the fall of Yu Kingdom.

Guo Yu went to the Sujing Division to find Jiang Zhou but failed, and did not give up since then. He went to the Sujing Division to ask for help every day, but because Jiang Zhou was not there, it was difficult for everyone in the division to reveal the whereabouts of a third-rank real person, so he had to He dismissed Mr. Jiang on the grounds that he was very easy to see.

Guo Yu, a mere student from a poor family, has nowhere to ask.

After Yu Gong sent her away, he didn't just let her go.

Jiang Zhou went to the Earth Immortal Cave, so naturally he couldn't find Jiang Zhou either.

After all, it was about Jiang Zhou, and Yu Gong was afraid of something big, so he went to find out Guo Yu's origin by himself, trying to find out why she was so reluctant to see Jiang Zhou.

After this investigation, it turned out that something strange was found.

But just as he was about to continue the investigation, a major event happened in Jiangdu.

The Qiuwei Grand Competition has released the rankings.

There are hundreds of people on the list, but among them, the top three are the most eye-catching.

The No.3 Jingkui is actually Guo Xia.

No. 2 Yayuan is a Nanzhou student named Xu Wenqing. Although it makes Yangzhou students upset, this person is from Bailu College after all, and he is also famous in Yangzhou.

But Jie Yuan at the top of the list is a little-known man named "Zhong Kui".

This is unacceptable.

Especially at the Lu Ming Banquet, seeing this person's ugly appearance almost caused a commotion.

Jiangdu's famous family, Huaiyou Zhu's family, even some people pointed the finger at this person, accusing him of fraud, and wanted to coerce the public to force the chief examiner to depose this person.

At this moment, at the Lu Ming Banquet, Guo Xia, the chief scripture officer, transformed into a daughter, holding a book in blood, and weeping for her strange grievances, all of which shocked the Jiangdu court.

No one cared about that ugly Jieyuan.

　I haven't returned from a business trip, so I can only sneak in code words. I'm a little rushed, so I won't divide it into chapters.
